Abstract

The synthesis of alkali and alkaline earth salts of 3,3-diamino-4,4-dinitramino-5,5-bi-1,2,4-triazole (H(2)ANAT) is reported. The fast and convenient three steps reaction toward the target compounds does not require any organic solvents. In addition to an intensive characterization of all synthesized metal salts, the focus was on developing chlorine and nitrate-free red-light-generating pyrotechnical formulations. Strontium 3,3-diamino-4,4-dinitramino-5,5-bitriazolate hexahydrate served as colorant and oxidizer in one molecule. The energetic properties of all developed pyrotechnical formulations assure safe handling and manufacturing.
